How do I file a rental dispute in Dubai?
File with the Rental Dispute Centre (RDC) inside DLD headquarters. Fee is 3.5% of annual rent, capped at AED 35,000 for the claimant. Bring your Ejari, tenancy contract, passport copy, and evidence. Most straightforward cases resolve in 30–60 days. A mediator session is held first before a judge. Both parties must appear or appoint a legal representative.
How much notice do I need to give my landlord before leaving?
90 days written notice is required to vacate at the end of your tenancy contract under Dubai Tenancy Law. Notice must be sent by registered mail or notarised letter — a WhatsApp message does not count legally. If you fail to give proper notice, you may owe rent for the notice period even if you leave.
